By offering ISCC PLUS certified products, we can help our customers meet their sustainability and environmental goals.”
ISCC PLUS is a global certification system that verifies the sourcing and traceability of biomass and circular products applying a mass-balance approach. It validates consistency with environmental, social, and governance criteria throughout the supply chain, and it provides assurance to consumers and stakeholders regarding the production practices and use of resources.
The certification was awarded following a full independent, external audit by SCS Global Services, and will enable INVISTA to offer ISCC PLUS certified Adipic acid (AA), adiponitrile (ADN) and hexamethylene diamine (HMD). These intermediates could be supplied globally from the Victoria facility.
Kowalski added, “While we’ll be able to supply our customers globally from Victoria, INVISTA plans to seek future ISCC PLUS certifications at other sites around the world.”
